Does the word ‘accounting’ instantly send anxiety coursing through your veins? Shudder. The good news is it doesn’t have to be that way. North America’s simplest accounting software, Wave, just integrated with yours truly – Capsule CRM.

We joined forces, uniting Wave’s techy tool with our own. Together, we built a native integration (meaning it’s purpose-built), sharing all the necessary bits of data between their software and ours. All you have to do is log in, press a few buttons, and hey presto, your CRM and invoicing system are fully connected.

Who is Wave anyway?

Based in Canada, Wave was made to help small business owners take control of their cash flow. Yeah, I’m sure you’ve heard that one before. But they’re the real deal. In fact, their core values align neatly with ours: helping small business owners take the reins and squash complex business admin. For us - and more importantly for our customers - it’s a no-brainer.
What does Wave do?

Whether your goal is to grow your business or simply to minimize stress and feel comfortable in your finances, Wave has your back. Packed with clever (but never complex) tools, Wave’s Pro Plan will automate your admin tasks so you can whizz through bookkeeping, expenses, and more, so you can get back to business.

Plus, Wave also offers tailored services if you’re looking for 1:1 help with keeping track of your bookkeeping, setting up your account, or anything else you might need a hand with.

In addition to unique advice, you get access to simplified software that helps you manage your finances and save valuable time:

  • Accounting - It’s easier to make smart business decisions when you can track income and expenses, access meaningful reporting, and manage your cash flow in one space.
  • Invoicing - Create professional invoices in just a few clicks. You’ll look like a pro with minimal effort.
  • Secure payments - Get paid quickly: Wave’s software makes it easy for your customers to pay you. Whether that’s via bank deposit, credit card, or Apple Pay. Online payments mean on-time payments.
  • Payroll - The easy, accurate way to pay your employees, contractors, and you, too. Run payroll in minutes, and automate journal entries, meaning you can cut back on manual bookkeeping.
  • Receipts - Keep track of your expenses without the fuss. Quickly capture and categorize your receipts.

And with a mobile app, you can check your payments on the go. Or snap photos of your receipts for easy expense-tracking.

Why would I connect Wave and Capsule CRM?

Connect Capsule CRM with Wave, and your customer invoices will appear in their contact records, so you can instantly see who’s paid and who still needs a nudge. All in the same place you’re already working.

The Wave-Capsule CRM integration means:

  • Automatic contact sync: no manual copy-pasting or waiting for a list refresh.
  • Payment status in your CRM: glimpse their payment before you draft an email or hop on a call. Everything you need in one place.
  • Fewer spreadsheets: managing money or customers in spreadsheets is tough, unintuitive, and – let’s be real – a little antiquated. See every datapoint easily with straightforward software from Wave and Capsule CRM.
  • More time for the work that matters: Get your info in a flash so you can strategize your next moves and deliver great service - isn’t that why you started that business in the first place?

A native connection, instant info, and straightforward software: what else could you need?
